Riding for 2 1/2 months and hit 6,000 miles! Any adjustments or checks?
I just got my 06 ninja brand new from the dealership a little over 2 months ago and just clocked over 6,000 miles! All the guys at the dealership are idiots so is there any adjusting or tuning i should do after that much riding on a new bike? (besides oil n filter changes) Thanks

I think youre suppose to do a bunch of checkup stuff on the engine and parts at 500 miles or so?

WOW! Your rockers havent' burned up in 6000 miles of no adjustment? That scares me.[]
I hope you at least did the 500 mile valve adjustment. when I checked mine at 500, they were very close to their limits already!
Just a few things I can think of are:
Valve adjustment.
Chain adjustment.
Chain lube
Lubing various cables.
Greasing different pivot points i.e. rear control arm bushings, front steering knuckle.
I'm sure there are many other things I can't think of right now, but for god's sake, check your valves!
